Hey guys, I just picked up a 2000 Escalade 4x4 for my wife. She is already asking about larger rims/tires. I think it would look good with a 33" tire. Anyway I am having trouble finding a lift kit. This truck is still the old style truck that still has the true selectable 4x4, not the AWD the later models have. It is a factory rear leaf setup along with the '96+ Vortec 5.7 engine. Since I only need a few inches I planned on rear blocks or add-a-leaf to get the back up.

I figured the 1999 Tahoe/Yukon lift kits would work, but can anyone confirm this?

does that truck have air ride? If it does I believe the only thing the lift kits say is that you will lose that. Other than that, I always stay away from blocks but for a street rig, you can use them in the rear. The kit you get will most likely have blocks in the rear and maybe a torsion key or something like that for the front.

No air ride on my Escalade, didn't come out until the 2002 model, so no worries there.

Why did you buy a Caddy if your removing the suspension? Isn't that 90% of what sells a Caddy?

Ah, a body lift on a Cadillac. I'm from southern Arkansas and even I think that's redneck.

You are thinking hockey puck body lift. I'm talking real body lift, with bumper brackets and urethane gap guards. Still cheaper than a suspension by two-thirds, and it clears the tires he wants (she wants?).
